Two Mothers and Son explores the seeming needless, perpetual conflict between wife and mother-in-law in a typical African marriage; it is set in twenty-first century Nigeria which itself is a victim of conflicting and confusing interruptions of life. The son who is at the centre of it all, is caught between two loves, both possessive and obsessive, equally important but suffocating in a most debilitating manner. Added to this is the issue of religion which attempts to resolve the crisis but inadvertently contributes to the sad resolution of the conflict.

Son of Two Mothers traces the many twists and turns in the life of the author, Sherwin Tony Chong. Separated from his biological parents in rural Jamaica at an early age, he was uprooted and transplanted to his father's ancestral village in China, a totally foreign world. The author provides an intimate glimpse into rural Hakka Chinese societal and cultural practices in the 1940s. He recounts his struggle with issues of personal safety, acceptance and love within his family and the village with the ascent of the fledgling Communist Movement and the Japanese invasion of China looming in the background.The story of the author's return to his native Jamaica provides a first hand account of his struggle to reintegrate into Jamaican society while dealing with conflicts with members of the Chinese-Jamaican community and his own feelings of abandonment. The author's experiences shed light on key aspects of Jamaican culture and the Jamaican perspective on friendship and community.Sherwin's journey to maturity has been marked not only by war, disease, famine, superstition and poverty but also compassion, kindness and most of all, love.

With dazzling brilliance and empathy, Colm Tóibín's collection of stories wrestles with complicated themes of emotional restraint, the long reach of sexual repression, and the difficulty of escaping one's past. Each of the nine stories in this beautifully written, intensely intimate collection centers on a transformative moment that alters the delicate balance of power between mother and son, or changes the way they perceive one another. With exquisite grace and eloquence, Tóibín writes of men and women bound by convention, by unspoken emotions, by the stronghold of the past. Many are trapped in lives they would not choose again, if they ever chose at all. A man buries his mother and converts his grief to desire in one night. A famous singer captivates an audience, yet cannot beguile her own estranged son. And in "A Long Winter," Colm Tóibín's finest piece to date, a young man searches for his mother in the snow-covered mountains where she has sought escape from the husband who controls and confines her. Winner of numerous awards for his fifth novel, The Master—including the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award—Tóibín brings to this stunning first collection an acute understanding of human frailty and longing. These are haunting, profoundly moving stories by a writer who is himself a master.

I was taken in at the age of three by Mary Hynes and Janet Simons, after being separated from my mother, who suffered from schizophrenia. After that time, I was shuffled in and out of my grandmothers home before being placed in an orphanage, where I remained for one year. After a tumultuous court battle, I went home with the only two women brave enough to raise me. However, neither I nor my guardians could have imagined the trials awaiting our family after the proceedings ended.This story is about a young boy adopted by two lesbians of a different race than mine. However, it is much more than that. The harrowing custody battle that shaped an otherwise beautiful childhood, and my mother's battle with cancer, forced me to look at the world in shades of grey at a far younger age than I would have liked. Those experiences, many of them dealing with issues of race and sexuality, helped me stand out when I wanted to fit in. I yearned to be an average child, but people kept asking me about the two women who came to pick me up from school everyday. "e;Why are they white? And do they sleep in the same bed?"e; Children kept asking, waiting for an answer. My responses to their queries began to dovetail into deeper stories, explaining not only my life, but my viewpoints as well.One day a college professor discovered one of these viewpoints in one of my papers and suggested I keep writing. Although sharing my story with my closest friends was hard, the prospect of opening up my life to multitudes of people I didn't know was harder. However, in spite of myself, I began to write. From my mother's last hospital stay to my grandmother's questioning of my sexuality, to the first time I was ever told my moms were going to hell: every moment was important, and every event became a chance to become a better person by standing up for what I believed in, my family.
